at what we have gone through. why the sake of simple transparency wouldn't we want to get to the root cause of it? jillian: facebook said it was changing course. in a statement facebook said, quote, in light of the ongoing investigation into the origin of covid 19 in consultation with public health experts we will no longer remove the claim that covid 19 is man-made from our apps. facebook said in february it would remove posts claiming it was man-made, quote, following leading health organizations who debunked the claim. listen to what tucker carlson had to say about the shift by the media and the white house on the origins of the pandemic. >> virtually every news organization in the country

testimony, surprising. i've been following the trial, it was going to be an open and closed case real quick anyway but i think is going to be even quicker. this individual brought the police to the body and had every opportunity to keep this crazy version at the time when he had the motivation to tell the police it wasn't me, but instead he brought them to the body and confessed to the murder and years later or period of time later he comes forward, complete surprise, but wasn't supported by any evidence and totally unbelievable. this is a jury that goes in the room hits a vote, knocks on the door, comes out of the guilty verdict. jillian: at a hard time understanding why his lawyers would think this is a good idea to all of a sudden, this part of the story that he claims is part of the story but has not been heard, to come up with this now?

>> there is no more fundamental constitutional right and the right for a defendant to testify and as attorneys we can give advice and try to direct our clients the right path but there are some times that they insist and i think that is what happened here, the looked very uncomfortable going to that process. >> the little nuances you can see. doomsday mom, they are indicted on murder charges, what should we expect in the coming weeks in this case? >> wild indictment released on tuesday, 3 counts of murder which included their two

children as well is tammy who was killed. what do we look for, that was an arraignment that happened yesterday, the first proceeding after an indictment where typically defendants plead not guilty but she didn't. the defense attorney requested a continuance and did not plead not guilty and what that means to me as a practitioner, there may be a competency issue. if she can't understand the proceedings, the defense attorney may be saying to the court in chambers she can't proceed, that is issue number one. issue number 2 is newsworthy, the fact that the prosecutor could still for the death penalty for both defendants. they have 60 days from the arraignment to do so and that is what i'm looking forward to see whether or not this prosecutor is going to move forward and seek the death penalty for these individuals that killed two juveniles and another. >> okay. you have a lot of rather large books behind you, you need to get reading if you're going to finish them. >> thanks to those huge books.

coincidence if you use the right formula to get the wrong answer. you can't talk about concealed shattering records in june without looking at the violence we saw in cities across the country at the same time and the spike in homicide followed shortly after that and we've seen the civilian guns in circulation rise steadily for years, homicide remain steady until the last few years and from 2009 to 2013 when gun manufacturers saw their annual output double when president obama was the best gun salesman in the country homicides dropped during that period. doesn't hold up to scrutiny. >> your the crime stats, big-city homicide skyrocketing. anytime we put up a step like this i remind people last year wasn't a good here. we have really bad numbers last years of the fact that we are up over last year is even mwinter, portland, 800%. is democrat deflection working on the voters?

atf to stand for firearms which is one of 3 things you need to be in charge of if you're in charge of atf. does that answer concern you like it concern senator kennedy? >> yes. he punted on the question. he said of congress make the definition, right before that when asked if you want to ban assault weapons he said yes so it doesn't matter what the definition is. he wants to ban guns. it is not shocking, one of the worst pics biden has put forward so far and -- >> 15 seconds. with all the people you can find to run atf why did he pick david shipman? >> he campaigned as a moderate but gun grabbers like beto o'rourke in the campaign to this is a natural effort that. >> would like to have you back, interesting insight, very good, appreciate the time. >> the press to recall george gascon is gaining traction and the fight to hold the progressive da accountable.

past 10 years ever since different laws passed, the progressive laws, ab 190 different laws and we have a governor who has released 30,000 inmates the permit of corrections in the last year. so it is very very difficult for prosecutors, law enforcement to keep people safe with the change in policies. jillian: differently curious to see what ends of happening, district attorney, thank you for joining us this morning. >> democratic senator cory booker praising republican senator tim scott on his work to pass a police reform bill but get this, booker made the comments on an s nbc to joy read, a frequent critic. listen. >> as i have watched them share stories about his own encounters with police even as united states senator, he's not caving to the politics of this, i'm telling you as a black man tim scott is sincere in wanting to

lied to you? >> cannot guarantee a grant he is not lied to us because you never know. >> doctrine 3 fauci under fire for his mixed messaging throughout the pandemic defending the move to fund the wuhan lab. >> some republicans including our next guest trying to push america's top dark out. ohio congressman warren davidson, thanks for being here. >> thanks for covering the story. >> the soundbite pretty alarming when you think about the fact that you have the 600,$000 in cash even though he says it is a modest amount, still denying the fact the cash was possibly spent on gain of function research but saying no way to know that. how alarming is that? >> on both fronts, most americans would be fine if you

sprinkle modest amount of cash on 600,$000, it's not a modest amount, you can do a lot with 600,$000. the other part is it is equivocation it best when you look at what he said to senator rand paul a couple weeks ago. he's not a trustworthy person and lastly if you think about it for the role he's been in since 1984 to basically say we don't have a system of controls to hold anyone accountable when we fund them is pretty shocking, i doubt it is true frankly. >> your thesis is doctor fauci does need to go. my problem with all of this is not that you could be wrong, we are all foul, we all make mistakes, we are all wrong often. what bothers me about this whole thing is how sure fauci in the scientific community were that this did not start in the lab and they came out and said that. in my estimation scientists are supposed to be curious we talk concerning is that to you and how much does that contribute to your theory that fauci has got to go? >> when you look at where the country was, go back to january of 2020 when senator tom cotton presciently laid out four plausible explanations, a

scientist, hypothesis and test it. if you think it could have originated in a virology lab in wuhan particularly one we just funded you would have to say that is plausible but that's not what doctor fauci said. he and others made tom, look like a conspiracy theorist and anyone who would echo such a possibility was that way so not only did they attack the messenger who was just using scientific reasoning, they used every tool in the kit bag from the media to social media to cancel voices that would speak reason into the situation and that is the shame. he's been in the role since 1984 which is a fitting reference to some of the nonsense he has been putting out in the past year, he's not proven trustworthy and that sense but has not been

prepared. it is his lead role to make sure the country is prepared so he hasn't been prepared to deal with the situation. the world health organization providing cover for china, there's no pushback. when donald trump said we had to get the world health organization to push for details they didn't do it. jillian: back to something you said at the end, i doubt that is true when talking about lack of the system check in place to be able to see where the money is gone and what it is being spent on. do you think they know what it has been spent on? >> i think they should know. wouldn't we want the people using our hard earned tax dollars to know what they spend it on and have a system of audits to say did you do the research we told you to do when we fund in your research? we would expect that. small businesses have those controls. we want our automakers to do

that. all this is minor compared to the medical field. we think of aerospace. of the country had an airliner go down in their country and kill hundreds of people the world would want to know was it an accident or was there something more involved. the country wouldn't allow outside investigators in, we would say could you send us the black box, we have listened to it, it is an accident, we are not going to supply that, no one would trust them. that's what china is doing. people like doctor fauci have provided cover for them, the world health organization provided cover for them, shockingly many fellow countrymen have provided cover for china. they would rather blame republicans for donald trump and that is why political science should not be able to trump scientist doctor fauci led that charge needs to be fired. >> to just know what the money is being used on. thank you. very much.

and still to come, during the border visit republican lawmakers are denied access to a dea migrant facility. what do they have to hide? jillian: what she saw firsthand. todd: joe collegea joining us live. all that coming up next hour.
